The activation of carbon-carbon bonds has attracted much attention in the past decade. Despite important progress, the development of asymmetric reactions lags behind. For the first time, asymmetric rhodium(I)-catalyzed direct oxidative additions into enan ...
Amorphous nanoparticles (a-NPs) have physicochemical properties distinctly different from those of the corresponding bulk crystals; for example, their solubility is much higher. However, many materials have a high propensity to crystallize and are difficul ...

Nanoelectromechanical (NEM) switches have the potential to complement or replace traditional CMOS transistors in the area of ultra-low power digital electronics. This paper reports the demonstration of the first ring oscillator built using cell-level digit ...
Nanoelectromechanical (NEM) switches have the potential to complement or replace traditional CMOS transistors in the area of ultra-low-power digital electronics. This paper reports the demonstration of prototype circuits including the first 3-stage ring os ...
Functional nanostructured carbon materials, including two-dimensionally extended nanosheets, offer
intriguing perspectives for applications in emerging technologies such as hydrogen storage, lithium
storage, transition metal free catalysis, or solar abso ...
We report our recent efforts on the realization and characterization of a conductive polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microstructure containing liquid crystals (LC). The sample has been realized by means of a layer by layer strategy. An indium tin oxide (ITO) l ...
